#1 Single on the day you were born?

Postby Cognitive Gear » Mon Feb 01, 2010 12:20 am

Warning: Participation in this thread could give away information you might not want to, so participate at your own (or your parent's!) discretion.
This website can tell you what the top single was on the day you were born: Link (US and UK Only, sorry. :( )

Anyways, on the day I was born, the top single in the US was: REO Speedwagon- Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore

In the UK: Philip Bailey & Phil Collins' Easy Lover

These are pretty awesome 80's songs, if you ask me. What was the top hit on the day you were born?

In the USA: "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" by John Denver

In the UK: "Whispering Grass" by Windsor Davies & Don Estelle

Always got a kick out the first song whenever it came on the radio. Wasn't aware of the later song. So went to YouTube to check it out. Its kinda a tongue 'n cheek comedy song from a TV series. Don't ask me why but "Don't eat the Daisies" popped into my mind while they sang it.
